  • Extending a known topology of a network using data obtained from monitoring the network
    Patent number: 10904094
    Abstract: In embodiments, a known network relation is generated from a known topology of a network and is sent to a first data source agent associated with a first tool configured to monitor the network. A first contextual topology of the network is received from the first data source agent and is based on the known network relation and first data associated with the first tool. An extended topology is generated by reconciling the known topology with at least the first contextual topology. In further embodiments, a derived network relation is received from the first data source agent. The derived network relation is sent to a second data source agent. Second contextual topology based, at least in part, on the derived network relation can be received from the second data source agent. An updated extended topology based, at least in part, on the second contextual topology can be generated.
